Tailàndia

By faith, we see the unreached of Thailand authentically responding to the gospel and being discipled into biblically-based, community-transforming churches that engage in mission. Our mission is to make disciples where He is not yet known.

Under the Christian organization AIDIA, Peruvian believers and SIM missionaries seek to see churches planted and believers discipled into mature Christians in the rural villages of Apurímac. In this region only 8 percent of the villages have an evangelical church.

This project will enable the SIM Paraguay camping ministries to expand. It will better train counselors and leaders, to offer more effective camps through use of a property that is designed for larger numbers of people for family or summer camps.

Many pastors don’t receive any ongoing development for their pastoral abilities, and most of them lack any formal training. Most of the pastors are eager to upgrade their knowledge of theology and through this ministry we help pastors access this education.

This conference will bring together the SIM directors who serve in Latin America to provide leadership development and training.

Communities where He is least known

The Central Thai

There are very few Christians (0.25%) among the Thai who live in the central plain region, which includes the capital city of Bangkok. Many districts and sub-districts in this region have no known Christians and no Christian workers. SIM is recruiting multi-skilled church planting teams to bring the gospel to this significant group of people in Thailand.

University Students

There 2.5 million students at 170 universities in Thailand. Many of these come from areas where the gospel has never been preached. University is often a time of self-exploration and considering new ideas, which creates a great opportunity to introduce students to Christ. Most of Thailand’s universities have no Christian work happening amongst students. Opportunities exist from opening new campuses to joining existing campus work. Teaching English is a large and strategic opportunity, because the new Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) community has chosen English as its medium for communication. Students know that their career success will be dependent on their ability to speak English. They desire to learn from first-language English speakers. Our desire is to have workers who are committed to building relationships with Thai university students, evangelising and making disciples of new believers.

Prayers

Pray for God to raise up workers to build multi-skilled church planting teams in the least reached parts of Thailand. Pray that God will break down spiritual strongholds of resistance to the gospel in these areas.

Imagine you were one of the only believers among your people. Your friends, neighbors and loved ones knew nothing of the forgiveness, salvation and beautiful promises of Jesus. How would you feel? This is the reality for Oumar*, a Hassaniya brother in Christ from Mali whose prayers have gone before the Lord for his people for many years.

Reed encountered the Deaf in Ecuador. What he found was astonishing — and calls for Jesus followers to serve this isolated group.
